With these challenging and unpredictable times we are currently facing due to the COVID-19 crisis, the West Niagara Chambers of Commerce want to provide our Members access to up-to-date government announcements and support programs, resources, webinars, and other important information.

In an effort to maximize our resources, we have created this collaborative email as a response to these updates that apply to our Memberships at large. We will be sending out relevant government resources once per week, or when important announcements are made, on behalf of the Grimsby Chamber, Lincoln Chamber, and West Lincoln Chamber.

This year, the
North American Occupational Safety and Health Week is celebrated from May 3 - 9.

The goal during Safety and Health Week is to focus employers, employees, partners and the public on the importance of preventing injury and illness in the workplace, at home, and in the community.

With the pandemic changing the business environment, our governments are focusing their celebrations on mental health and COVID-19 best practices awareness.

Government of Canada

The Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS) provided online resources for organizations to participate in Safety and Health Week to promote wellness in their workplaces, including:

Listen to podcasts from the collection of topics ranging from work-related stress, ergonomics, repetitive strain injury prevention, and mental health.

Take CCOHS’ free online courses on mental health themes such as how to have courageous conversations, build resiliency, and promote well-being, as well as courses on office ergonomics and pandemic planning.
